The Woman Knows What the Right Thing Is

The woman knows what the right thing is, because that's what she would have done. And we don't live up to our own, that's why I call it the ideal woman, or the perfect person,. It is idealized. We've never met this ideal ever. No one, no one qualify. But when we're doing that, you try to defend us from ourselves. Like honey, but you couldn't have. Right? Honey, look at your provoked honey. Look at the situation, you're in honey."

Episode notes

Alison Armstrong is an internationally acclaimed educator and expert on understanding men, women, and relationships. She’s also the bestselling author of “The Queen’s Code.”

Yes, the Renaissance of Men podcast is about men and masculinity, but in her book, Alison writes, “To know men is to love them.” To me, that earns her a seat at the table.

Because Alison has spent 30 years — yes, three decades — studying men, and has devoted her life to explaining men to women. Her goal is to improve human relationships so we can begin building heaven on Earth.

This ties into my goal to help create The Great Reconciliation, which marks the coming together of men and women in a space of mutual respect, understanding, and appreciation.

Because men and women are meant for each other.

“The Queen's Code” paints a picture of what reconciliation might look like, not in some grand vision, but in the homes and everyday lives of eight characters. It is a book of wonders, full of sincere appreciation and honoring of men.

And my hope with this podcast is that you'll see, as I do, that in our world of shattered trust between men and women, Alison, the book's author, is worthy of your trust.

Give Alison just 17 minutes and I think she’ll earn your trust, like she has mine.

In our conversation we discussed:

Dependence, independence, and interdependence between men and women
Ultimatums, and what they mean to women vs. men
What women's independence is for, and how they can think about giving it up, and what they'll get in return
The difference between "non-starters" in new relationships vs. "not-forevers" in existing relationships
And finally, The Language of Heroes, which is a method for women to communicate their needs to men in a way which “speaks to the heart, soul and spirit of a man. It calls to him, rouses him, honors him."

And that, ultimately, is why I'm hosting a woman on the Renaissance of Men.

Because alongside Jack Donovan, Tanner Guzy, Warren Farrell, Ryan Michler, Robert Bly, Anthony Johnson, Douglas Gillette, David Deida, Elliot Hulse, Jordan Peterson, and so many of my greatest teachers about men and masculinity, there's one who's spoken from a perspective that none of them can.
